[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjerry123:
Hi!

I recently rooted my nexus 7 32 gb, and I rooted it using smoothest rom with trinity kernel. But I heard alotta good things about motley, so i changed. I had some troubles but after that I've noticed I had ALOT more FC's with random apps like n64oid, facebook, launcher etc. Also, N64oid lags sometimes on my tablet, but doesn't on my single core phone. What could it be?

I use Rom toolbox, max 1600 min 100, and trickster MOD but i don't really use anything from it.

Is it normal? Should I wait a couple of days for my tablet to "get used" to the new kernel? Or is it because it's jelly bean? Would the thunderbolt script help at all(random but I have it on my phone)? Would chainfire 3d make any difference?

I have an external keyboard that I plug in on my tablet if that makes any difference.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robin2:
A clean install with a full wipe would greatly reduce FCs and improve performance. I use motley's kernel aswell and it's super smooth evem at stock cpu speed. Just full wipe your device (backup!), install your desired rom (I recommend Paranoid Android or Rasbeanjelly) and then install motley's kernel. Also, fixing permissions in recovery reduces FCs, because incorrect permissions cause FCs.

Hi! Thanks for replying. Hmm... How would I do a full wipe? Haha, sorry I'm really bad at this. I have TWRP, so do I wipe (back up first of course) cache, dalvik cache, factory reset, system, format data? Or do I just leave out system? THEN i flash my new rom right?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjerry123:
bump! please help :(
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davisac:
Do a factory reset and reinstall rom, gapps, and kernel. Make a backup in TWRP first (nandroid) in case anything goes wrong.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjerry123:
Smoothest rom installs the kernel and the gapps for me, so I just do that right?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davisac:
Yeah if it's an all in one installer just go ahead and flash that.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robin2:
Be sure to also wipe system, because that is where the rom installs. So any conflicting files will be deleted for the next rom install.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sun0fNothing:
Hey guys, I'm not sure if my phone is dead. It was running fine this morning, Task & Ktoonsez' AOKP with Ktoonsez kernel. However, I tried to unlock it a little while ago and it wouldn't go on. It boots to the splash screen, both normally and going into recovery, but it doesn't last long enough to go into recovery or boot normally. I try to boot into download mode and it boots, but the phone turns off after a few seconds.

I tried to flash back to stock in Odin, but the phone doesn't stay in download mode long enough for the flash to finish.

I'm not sure what to do. Any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Lumixz:
Pretty sure if it was bricked it wouldn't boot into download mode at all. It sounds like it is losing power or something. The only thing I can think of is maybe your battery is bad. Download mode can run off of USB power if you remove the battery after booting into it. Maybe plug your phone in and boot into download mode, then take your battery out before it shuts off and see if it stays on.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sun0fNothing:
No dice. It just did the same thing it's been doing. I went into download, popped the battery, it stayed in download for a few seconds, and then powered off.

Could it be a faulty power button? The phone is constantly vibrating by itself and if the power button was messed up it could be causing the phone to leave download mode.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Lumixz:
As far as I can tell pressing or holding the power button in download mode will only restart it, but won't shut it off. Also it takes about 10 seconds. I don't think it's your power button.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sun0fNothing:
Ah, okay.

In that case, though, I have no clue what's causing the problem here. At this point the only thing I can do is enter download mode for a few seconds, but I can't get it to be enough time to flash a ROM in Odin.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KorGuy123:
Might be a dumb question... Is your battery charged? I'd plug it in for a while off and see if the battery logo comes up and than try putting it in recovery or download.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sun0fNothing:
I tried that too. It's been plugged in for a while and the same thing happens. It just stays in download mode for a few seconds and then turns off. Also, I tried flashing back to stock in Odin but it failed because the phone turned off before the flash could finish. Now the phone says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select Recovery mode in Kies and try again."

So it's basically stuck in download mode cause of a corrupted flash. If I could get the phone to stay in download mode, I could flash it back to stock with Odin, but it's not giving me enough time at this point.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fly3rr:
I'm running into the same problem currently, I was wondering if you were able to find a solution. Same ROM same Kernel. I've been using my current version of the ROM since October and haven't flashed anything recently, It just died on me last nigth and now I'm experiencing what you are as well. I was able to turn on the phone somehow last night but it stayed on for couple of mins and turned off again. At the time I had 60% charge.

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sun0fNothing:
Unfortunately not. Sent my phone back to AT&T and they honored the warranty (despite it being very clear that I was rooted and on custom software).

Thanks. I got the phone when it launched so it's been over a year hence I'm well over the one year manufacturer warranty. Doubt they'll honor it for me =/.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Damian8a:
Bad news, It's not about software, it's a hardware issue.

I had that issue with a Sprint S3,

The power button switch is stuck pressed all the time, you can try to hit it a little and maybe it pops out but the issue is gonna still there.

If you remove and insert the battery does it vibrates and tries to turn on without pressing the power button?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fly3rr:
yup I just realized it was the power button issue. I managed to fix the problem[kind of], i kept trying to get into download mode while connected to AC Adapter with official charging cables. And it stayed in download mode long enough for me to go back to stock ROM. I'm just trying to avoid hitting the power button as much as possible because every time I do something goes crazy and phone turns off.

I'm gonna try and go to AT&T store tomorrow to see if they can do anything about this.

Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it.

[General Questions and Answers] rojicha07:
Hi everyone!

I recently purchased from china a Galaxy S3 i9300 replica, just like the one in the attached pictures, with MTK6575 processor, 4.8 inch screen and so on...

I was already able to root it, however I want to install CWM recovery but don't know how. I tried a guide I found on this forum using SP Flash Tool, but had no success. Actually I didn't understand very well the guide so probably that's why I couldn't get to install CWM on my phone.

Do you have any idea of how can I do this? I would really appreciate if you could give me simple steps to do it, I'm kind of new in this hehe :(

Thanks a lot in advance! Best regards! :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
Title pretty much says it but just wondering if anyone has not been able to run custom kernels. It started with my attempt with Komodo etc., but I always get some form of screen flashes or massive FCs. Im am rooted with original 1.12 hboot. I have been able to successully load and run ROMs from Viper to AOKP, even CM10.1 but never able to run a custom kernel. I have wiped clean, reset and still no go. I am using the 2.2.1 TWRP so wondering if the newest TWRP would fix that ability? I know some of the EVO LTEs just wont run with a custom kernel but figured I would try.

Thanks in advance for any input.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] pr0xyw0rm:
Are you S-Off or S-On. I would flash the latest recovery just to be safe.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ryanissnackpack:
I've had the same issue with Komodo. I'm S-OFF 1.19. I tried on the latest twrp, 2.3.3, and even on a tip re-flashed 2.3.1

I was able to boot after flashing with 2.3.1, sometimes...but it really wasn't stable enough to even try to use. Constant reboots, FC's, bootloops, etc

The device I'm having this issue on is an insurance replacement from asurion, the 4th one to be exact. i never had this issue on any of the previous devices...my first was new via preorder, that was stolen, and the first 2 refurbs were returned due to other hardware defects, although at least they could run a custom f***ing kernel.

as far as I've been able to tell nobody has found the issue that makes some devices not take to a custom kernel.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:
Did any of Ye try the voltage stabilizer
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
Thanks for the replies. I am S-OFF, current baseband etc. I haven't tried the voltage mod, but will look into that and come back for questions if necessary. If you have any tips on the voltage mods etc, feel free to pass them on. I have tried to use Goo Manager to download the newest TWRP but kept getting errors but haven't tried today. Will try to get the most recent on and look at voltage mods. Its not a huge deal, I get great battery life and its fast enough but I wanted to at least see if there was something specific that I have been missing to run the kernels. Thanks for all the replies!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
The Komodo kernel worked only after updating TWRP to newest and I also had to use the voltage mod as neither would load without it. Great advice and for first time I am running custom kernel on top of PACMAN ROM. I tried capped at 1.7 then 2.1 both work but the 2.1 started to indicate some weird results within minutes of loading. I backed down to 1.9/384 and looks to be the sweet spot. Thanks again!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ryanissnackpack:
I have tried that and it hasn't made any improvements for me. :(

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:

I haven't tried flashing post install since it worked loading pre-install for me but will if I have any additional issues. Thanks for the tips!

I'm not sure if it's possible to do on your phone, but on mine, when I installed a costume kernel, I got the same issue that you're having...

All I did was to download a stock ROM, with connected the phone in flash mode (volume down + connect to computer) and with flashtool, flashed the rom, and all came back to normal... :)

But I have a Sony Xperia S...

Look it up on YouTube.. Or try here in FaQ to check the brick section :p

Hello.

I'm using Endless7's CM7 with GB kernel and since a few days ( maybe a week or more ), all google services doesn't work any more ( gtalk, gmail sync' , google+ ).

Every program not related to google services work fine... So I decided to restore my phone using an sbf and flashing a fresh version of the rom.

Obviously, the problem still persists and now I can't log to my google account ( unable to connect to the server ).

Any one could help me ?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 93fuelslut:
Every timei go to flash a ROM it says failed. Twrp 2.3.3

I installed goo manager and every time I go to download a rom it says invalid md5 sum.

When I go to download gapps thru goo manager it says 500 iinternal error.

And when I hit open recovery script it always says 500 Internal error or unable to find recovery or having difficulties communicating with server.

What do I do?

I thought I was toro plus, but my phone under settings says sprint nexus s 4g and goo manager says crespo4

This is the Galaxy Nexus forums, not the Nexus S forums, you are looking in the wrong place and trying to flash incompatible roms. Also something like this should be posted in the Q&A section, never the developer section.

[Asus Transformer TF700] darkmanx2g:
I ran CM10.1 was the first custom rom I loaded on my Infinity. It still had problems with lag on the browser and opening apps. Plus CM10.1 didn't have the cool Asus toggles and Asus apps loaded. So I tried CleanRom when it was 2.1. Man what a big difference in performance and touch response.

The original developer of Cleanrom left and a new developer now taken over and still making big improvements. If it wasn't for CleanRom this tablet wouldve been doomed with all of Asus critical flaws. The hardware is nice but the I/O problem and shaky firmware caused a mediocre experience which is unacceptable for a high end tablet. I don't think I can go try another ROM unless CROMI stops development. I was really amazed what CROMI has done to this tablet.

I am partial to CROMI myself. It runs super smooth, and sbdags is continuously making improvements.

CROMI -- I did actually try out CM10 in the earlier versions (which I'm sure do not even hold a candle to the more recent ones), but I did not like on this particular device (I have a few others that run/ran CM to great satisfaction). I like the keyboard toggles (available in the more recent M versions, I know), and the external storage functions must work impeccably for me to even seriously consider to try out CM10 at the moment...

I've donated to all three projects (CM, CleanROm and CROMI) and I do hope that CM10 is succesful and popular -- no hard feelings here. :)

Hi Guys,

I updated to 4.1.2 few days ago and since then I'm experiencing a battery drain in deep sleep mode usually 3-4% per hour.

I froze all the "safe" apps via Titanium backup, and also removed some bloatware (chat on, google+ etc..), also I disabled the Google location services and the WIFI during sleep it set to off...still no improvement, could you kindly advise what can I try next? as I'm desperate and if I won't find any solution I'll just downgrade back to 4.1.1...

Similar to you, I have tweaks 4.1.2 so much. Removed all the bloatware, disabled google now/locations, etc etc. Stopped media scanning too and checked to see all the wakelocks and try eliminating the top ones.

Basically, unless I'm missing something very obvious, there is absolutely NO WAY whatsoever to stop the battery drain. Software is the problem, and I would suggest reverting back to 4.1.1 unless Samsung or Google sort this mess out.
